Our trip with Able Fisherman Charters in Panama City, Florida was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we stepped onto the boat, we knew we were in for something special. Captain Steve is professional, knowledgeable, and welcoming, but I have to give a special shoutout to Matt, the deckhand, who truly made the experience unforgettable.

Matt was absolutely amazing with our children. His patience, humor, and enthusiasm kept them engaged and excited the entire time. He took the time to explain everything to them, from how to bait a hook to reeling in their very first fish. Watching their faces light up with each catch was priceless, and Matt celebrated every single moment with them like it was his own.

The trip was perfectly organized, and we caught more fish than we ever expected! The boat was clean and well-equipped, and the crew’s experience and passion for what they do really shined through. It wasn’t just a fishing trip, it was a family memory that we’ll cherish forever.

If you’re looking for a top-notch charter experience in the Panama City area, Able Fisherman Charters is the way to go. We can’t wait to come back, and we’ll definitely be booking again!

Had the pleasure of taking my 18 year old son out on his fist charter with Captain Steve today. I chose this boat becuase of the boat type with this being his first time out and it did not dissapoint!!!! Captain Steve and his crew were awesome even while we were trying to out run the bottle nose dolphins that we were feeding with every chatch we had for 2 hours. We put fish in the cooler and had a blast doing it!!!!

This fishing trip was our family’s favorite part of our entire vacation!
The captain Steve, and deckhand Matt knew right where the fish were!
Informative, fun and extremely helpful.

We were fish on from the start!

We were able to get our fish cleaned and filleted at the dock & they recommended a local restaurant ‘J Michaels’ across the street. Where we brought our fillets in & had a family style dinner right then.

All in all, an amazing experience!

Next time we use their expertise,  we will book the longer trip for sure!
Highly recommend!

Only booked a 3 hour trip with some friends but ended up having a great day of sheepshead. Captain and deckhands were awesome and helpful. Would highly recommend.

I booked a 4 hour charter for my son and my two grandsons, ages 7 and 8.
I wanted them to have a great 1st experience and they did. We ‘bottom fished’ and we came home with a cooler full of fish and some great memories. To hear the 7 year old describe the day to his mom was worth every penny.
